Answers and Explanations- Free and New GMAT Practice Test Sample Questions 111-120
111. B: The semicolon is incorrect punctuation here. With the coordinating conjunction "and," no punctuation is needed between the two gerunds. A comma is permissible to indicate Mac did not necessarily do both things simultaneously; however, semicolons are for separating two independent clauses, or separating dependent clauses/phrases containing internal commas.
112. A: "High School" is incorrect capitalization. These words are not names/proper nouns and should not be capitalized.
113. D: The singular form of the verb ("plays") disagrees with the plural noun subject ("Nurses"), representing incorrect grammar.
114. C: "Tonsels" is an incorrect spelling of the word "tonsils."
115. C: "Serine" is an incorrect spelling of the adjective "serene," meaning peaceful (indicated by sentence context), confusing it with the noun serine, meaning the amino acid.
116. B: Ending this question with a period is incorrect punctuation. It should end with a question mark.
117. C: "Bachalor" is incorrect spelling of "bachelor."
118. B: The comma is incorrect punctuation. No punctuation mark is needed here.
119. D: A singular predicate with a plural subject is incorrect subject-verb agreement, i.e. grammar.
120. A: The noun "dean" is not a name/proper noun, so the capitalization is incorrect.
